    For calling sika stags during the
    rut, start by expanding the lower part of the call, place
    the mouthpiece to your lips and start to blow softly
    into the call, growl, and then soft again. Carefully
    change to blow hard to reach a high pitched whistling
    noise, then carefully change intensity again to blow
    short and soft and growl softly. Call three times like
    this, wait and adjust your next calling sequence to the
    response of the deer. Note, sometimes the stags approaches
    without response. For best result, open and
    close your hands in front of the call for a more authentic
    sound. Make sure you do not blow any saliva into
    the mouthpiece.
    This call can also be used to imitate the distress call
    of a red deer calf. This sound agitates the hind herd,
    attracting them to come close, often barking. This
    type of calling is most successful in areas with dense
    red deer populations.
    For calling a red deer hind, expand the lower part of
    the call and place the mouthpiece between your lips
    and exhale. Blow short and longer thrusts of air for
    15-20 seconds, rest for two to three minutes and continue
    to call like this for 15-20 minutes each stand.
    When calling in this way, you may also attract predators
    such as wolves and lynx in these areas where
    reed deer are common.
